Ok...so this got me thinking and I had an inspiration! (and you can see it means I cheated a bit) :)
I thought right away of this very fun set Under the Weather from February's Release and a rainbow!
So...you can see it's not monotone...but each section is monotone, will that count????
I began by coloring up the sun, and cute little raindrops with Copic and trimming them out with a little white edge. Then I cut out my paper....
I used progressive circles from my Grand Circle Nestabilities in the Grand Calibur machine , to make the progressive cuts. All you do is layer one circle over the other one color at a time like you see the sections of color looking like - almost like a crescent moon shape, and run them through the machine. Then you layer and adhere them smallest to biggest size. Then once they were on the card base I stamped each row of rainbow with the very fun umbrellas that I curved when placing on my acrylic block.
I just added some color with copics to the rhinestones and the sentiment.
It just makes me smile when I look at it!
